Paleoecology of Mercy Bay reefs, Frasnian, Banks Island
Principal Investigator: Edinger, Evan N
Licensed Year(s): 2001 2000
Summary: The research team will examine the detailed structure, sedimentology and paleoecology of reefs in Mercy Bay. Transportation by fixed-wing aircraft to Polar Bear cabin near Castel Bay will be followed by helicopter transport to various field sites (East Branch Mercy River; Lower Mercy River; Southern Patch reefs; Princess Royal Islands; Hay Point, Victoria Island; Gordon Point, Victoria Island). ...


Holocene paleoecology of the central Canadian Arctic Islands
Principal Investigator: Gajewski, Konrad
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2004 2001 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: This ongoing project examines how vegetation has changed in response to changes in climate. I am using the history of vegetation, as recorded by the fossilized pollen that is present in lake sediments, to determine how vegetation in the arctic has changed over thousands of years. Fossilized pollen is collected by taking core samples from lake bottoms on Prince of Wales and Bathurst Islands. Pre...


Early Quaternary and Late Tertiary Geology and Geomorphology, Arctic Islands
Principal Investigator: Fyles, John G.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: On Melville and Bathurst Islands, the Researchers will locate and describe the occurrence of high-level gravels and sands, record evidence of the flow-direction of the rivers in which they originated and search for plant and insect fossils that may provide clues about the age of these deposits and about the climate and environment at that time....


Fossil Collection from Middle Devonian Rock Layers in Canadian High Arctic for Comparison to Existing Fossils of Similar Age in Alberta, Europe and Siberia
Principal Investigator: Johnston, Paul A.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1991
Summary: Using maps and air photographs, the researchers will discover where to find specific layers of rock that may contain fossil remains of ancient sea life. Their search will focus on fossil clams, snails and also some of the earliest back-boned animals to appear on land....

Devonian Carbonates and Reef Development
Principal Investigator: Pedder, Alan E.H.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will collect 1/2 to 2 kilogram samples of limestone. These are sent to a lab for processing which leaves small fossils of calcium phosphate. These are studied to determine their age and the conditions of the life of the fossils....
